0) INTENDED USE
The device is designed to be used in sanitary environments for the purpose of sterilizing non-heat sensitive
medical and surgical instruments. The process of disinfection is based exclusively on the thermal destruction of
the microorganisms present upon the instruments at a typical temperature of about 180º C.
Effectively reaching a sterile state for the instruments inserted into the sterilizers depends upon multiple factors:
• The level of initial contamination of the instruments (total bacterial load);
• The type of contaminating microorganisms;
• The permeability of all the contaminated instrument parts by the hot air produced by the sterilizer.
For more information see the paragraph **ATTENTION** ahead.
The device must be used only and exclusively by healthcare professionals (doctors, paramedics,
nurses or similar) who are familiar with the principles of controlling sterilization processes in
general and dry heat sterilization processes in particular

6) TIME – PROGRAMMED RUNNING
1. Insert the supplied connection socket of the mains cable in the plug of the device
(Pos. 4) and the feeder- plug in the wall mains socket, after checking the voltage value.
2. Turn the thermoregulator knob (Pos. 1) and set the desired temperature. This operation shall always be carried
out when device is cold.
3. Place materials to be sterilized inside the device.
4. Lock up the door (Pos. 8).
5. Keep the air-inlets half-opened (Pos. 7) to allow a better circulation of the air inside the device and to distribute
the heat even to the corners and hidden spaces. Close the above air-inlets only at the end of the sterilization cycle
in order to seal the device and to keep the material inside in temperature for a long time
6. Set, by turning the timer knob (Pos. 2) anti-clockwise, the sterilization time adding necessary time in order to
bring the device and the material inside to the desired temperature. The necessary time to reach the temperature of
180°C is about 30 minutes in case of empty chamber sterilizer, and about 60 minutes with Loaded Chamber well
arranged on the trays. This operation switch on the warning light (Pos. 5) indicating that the device is working
and the warning light resistance” (Pos. 6) indicating that the resistances are turned on in the circuit. The
graduated thermometer (Pos. 3) allows to check the progressive increase of the internal temperature. When the
internal temperature has reached the programmed value, the warning light “resistance” (Pos. 6) is turned off for
then, after brief time, again turned-on indicating the re-connection of the resistances in the circuit. This operation
allows to keep inside the device a constant temperature up to the end of the sterilization cycle. After programmed
time has elapsed, the device turns itself off automatically.
7) CONTINUOS – CYCLE RUNNING
The device has also a continuous cycle running. For use this kind of running proceed up to point 5 of the
procedure for time-programmed running described above. Turn, at this moment, the timer knob (Pos. 2) anti-
clockwise. The indefinite-time manual continuous-cycle is inserted with a click. To turn off the device, turn back
the timer know to position 0.
8) ORDINARY MAINTENANCE
Before initiating any maintenance operation, make sure that:
• the device is not connected to the power source.
• the device is at ambient temperature.
